Show me your CX-5 wheels

[Lazy2.5]

I've been researching more aggressive tire/wheel options. Currently my '21 CX-5 carbon turbo is on corksport lowering springs and bilstein b6s with stock wheels, 19x7, and the toyo's
Really like the idea of switching to Konig as a wheel brand, possibly the Dekagram 19x9.5 ET35
Was also looking at michelin ps4s's 275/40/R19 as a near equivalent on the tire sizing side. Another option may be the pilot sport 4 SUV although they only go up to 265 width so may drop down to 255 or 245/50 if I go that route.

I understand the gas mileage and handling issues with going to wider wheels and outside of recommended sized tires.

No you don't.

(Thank you for your concern)

Found some pictures of similar but not exactly the same setups on fitment industries (e.g. 2022 Mazda CX-5 2.5 Turbo Enkei TSR-X 20x9.5 +40 | Nitto Invo 275/40 | Corksport Lowering Springs and 2016 Mazda CX-5 Touring XO London 20x10.5 +30 | Falken Pro G5 Sport A/S 275/40 | Megan Racing Lowering Springs)

Thought some of you might be going in the same direction and interested.

@whiirrPssh go as wide as you want on the wheels and tires (without rubbing of course)

But stay close to ET45 for the offset. I would not consider anything lower than ET40.

I wouldn't do it unless you really like the look of tires poking out. I think it looks tacky.

But those wheels will look great at 19x8.5 +43.

Also for fitment, don't look at pictures from first gen CX-5s.

Maximum wheel width for a 255/50R19 is 9”, and for a 245/50R19, it’s 8.5”. So you’re basically painting yourself into a corner with a 19 x 9.5” wheel.

If you want smaller tires, then going up to a 20” wheel will increase the wheel width range.
